subject and vast numbers of petitions arc pouring into parliament in favour of reform as well as more or less against it if the bill should be finally lost after the high expectations that have been raised respecting the success of the measure we are apprehensive it may give rise to some disturbances in the kingdom the russians at the latest intelligence from poland had not made any new attack upon the polish foorces the weather is said to have proved very unfavourable for military operations the thawing of the snow and thehreaking up of the ice in the vistula field marshal diebitsch has set at liberty polish prisoners of war each of them re ceived two ducats and a proclamation to the poles the governorgeneral of warsaw m woyszinki and the vicegovernor mesi- olowski have resigned a

and 66 fieldpieces independent of 10000 place which have ended favourably to the poes the following are extracts from the gazette d ance of monday paris march 20 it is stated that marshal diebitsch has re ceived orders from tbe emperor nicholas not to proceed to the utmost extremity with respect to tbe capital of poland we have been given to understand tba orders have been issued for commencing ex tensive repairs at the palace of the tuile- ries so that the king and his family may have a sufficient number of apartments and fitted up in a manner so as to render tbem a fit residence for his
